The History of Recipes
Transcribed cooking instructions as a concept can be found way back into the far past, in truth as far back as early Egypt, and maybe even further. Interesting though that maybe, sadly, these early cook books were just primitive hieroglyphic or cunieform recipes for food preparation.
Fascinatingly, the most ancient recipe found, according to academics is a collection of tablets in ancient Sumerian which show the making of bread which is then used to make a drink, quite possibly a form of beer as it is recorded as having made anyone who tried it feel wonderful. As our culinary historical trip moves to more modern times we have two books which appeared in the 1300s : a cookery book entitled `Forme of Cury`, and another entitled `Curye on Inglish`. Amusingly, these two books are unconnected to the indian food that we all know today, but rather descriptions of the types of food on the menues of the rich and powerful. In the 15th century, knights returning from the crusades brought back many new foods and herbs from the Middle-East, including spices such as coriander, parsley, basil and rosemary. These new spices and herbs led to an eruption in recipe manuscripts, the majority of which are now in private collections. Over the following few centuries, the upper-class families of Europe tried to offer the most exotic meals, and as a result chefs and their collection of recipes were at a premium. Even so, it was during the 19th century that fine cookery and cookery books rose to prominence. The Famous Mrs Beeton in the UK, and the equally well-known Fannie Farmer in the USA, devoted their lives to assembling, testing, and writing down popular recipes of the day. The introduction of television brings us celebrity TV chefs and the recipe books that accompanied them. And that brings us to the present day and the invention of computers and the internet, permitting everyone to access thousands of recipes like those on this recipe site. |
